Day 1–2: Entebbe & transfer to Bwindi · Day 3: Habituation Experience, Rushaga · Day 4: Rest day · Day 5: Standard trek, second family · Day 6–7: Rest & optional activities · Day 8: Return

Road transfer to Rushaga, arriving with time to settle in ahead of the habituation day.
Up to four hours with your assigned family, still becoming accustomed to people, alongside the research team.
A day to recover between the two trek days — most guests use it to sleep in and process the previous day.
A fully habituated Rushaga family — Nshongi or Mishaya group — on the standard one-hour permit, a genuinely different pace and encounter from the habituation day.
Two flexible days for the Batwa Trail, Lake Bunyonyi, or simply resting at the lodge.
Transfer back towards Entebbe for your onward flight.
